Samer in Love

Yes -- it has happened. Samer is in love. Check out the back seat ...

Well, he has a new new car. It isn't red, which means he is broadening his horizons.

Join the lovefest at Samer's GTI Flickr photoset.

Nicole Heads East

Settle down guys -- it's only for a brief visit over the New Year's weekend.

Among other things (we sincerely hope) Nicole will be helping out with hosting duties for a holiday party.

Girl -- do you not do enough on your own?

Mike is Freelancing

Word on the street is that Mike is looking for some freelance gigs.

"High on a hill, it calls to me"

Fin, by Samer Farha

Regular readers of peepsNet know we're not good enough to come up with a headline like that.

It's the subject line of an email from Samer announcing -- all kidding aside -- an extraordinary portfolio of work from his recent trip to San Francisco, a "wonderful week hanging out with friends, eating great food, enjoying the sights and taking tons of photos. I think I've pulled the best of the best out and I have them up on my Flickr page.

The set is here. Don't miss it.

Today, H&G -- Tomorrow ... ?

This is where she'll be

Yeah, Iraq is disintegrating, the White House is leaking memos like there is no tomorrow (see: Iraq is disintegrating), people that outwardly seem to have no mental defects are already running for president and there was this story on the TV tonight about rats figuring out how to eat their way into FEMA trailers parked in Jefferson Parish.

We're not interested in small stuff like that on peepsNet.

Nicole has been offered a monthly column by the Home and Garden editor at the San Francisco Chronicle. Her beat will be the trials and tribulations of the renter in San Francisco.

Regular readers of peepsNet know that Nicole has already been published in the Chron. She has also pitched two other pieces that were accepted but haven't yet run and has generally been making a nuisance of herself -- you know what I'm talking about -- that the folks there must have thought well, she isn't going away so we better give her what she wants.

Smart move, Chronicle. Where do I subscribe?
